If I Had to Be You - Kay Starr

Why do I do just as you say

Why must I just give you your way

Why do I sigh, why don’t I try to forget

It must have been that something lovers call fate

Kept me saying, «I have to wait»

I saw them all, just couldn’t fall till we met

It had to be you, it had to be you

I wandered around and finally found the somebody who

Could make me be true, could make me be blue

And even be glad, just to be sad thinking of you

Some others I’ve seen might never be mean

Might never be cross or try to be boss but they wouldn’t do

For nobody else gave me a thrill, with all your faults I love you still

It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you

For nobody else gave me a thrill, with all your faults I love you still

It had to be you, wonderful you, it had to be you
